I've only had this stuff for a couple of days. My cockatiel has been on Kaytee Exact Rainbow since I got him 4 years ago. He does great on the pellets, but he has always had strange colored stools. I tried switching him over to the ZuPreem Natural but he has always loved sorting his colors (greens are eaten first, then yellows, then red is saved until he's absolutely sure I'm not adding anymore greens or yellows to his food dish) and I think he loves the fruity flavor as well, he wouldn't touch the boring old tan pellets.

Well I decided to try the intune, fully aware that Pooky is a picky bird. I put a little bit in with the Kaytee and within minutes I knew I was going to write up a great review for this product. He went down to his food dish and, from the very beginning, started picking around the Kaytee Exact to get the Intune pellets. He even seems to like the red ones!

I don't feel comfortable enough with the product, having only had it for a little while, to give it five out of five stars. It's also unfortunate that pellet diets in general, but especially this product, seem to be so hard to come by! But other than having to search for it, I must say Higgins has a great product that everyone can love: Pooky gets his fruity flavored colors and I can sleep better knowing he's not going to stain the furniture with his bright firetruck red poop.

After reading the "only" review on this cat food, I felt the need to write one of my own. I have "never" purchased a cat or dog food that a animal has "loved" so much. She eats it like its going out of style, to the point that I'm thinking I need to limit her. Overall she also has never looked as good, or acted as peppy as she has since she began to eat this cat food. I think the other reviews cat was either sick from something else or has a type of allergy, because I have see nothing of that type of thing going on with my cat. I hope this helps

My 7 cats love this food and create quite a rumble when I open it up. I give this to them as an evening treat and give them Blue Buffalo dry food in the morning and along with the salmon. This product is not a "complete" cat food, it is strictly salmon so be sure you feed them a complete food along with it.

My dog loves this food, and all the dogs in my boyfriend's family do too. I trust Eagle Pack to make nutritious, safe food for dogs. But I believe the best advertisement for this dog food is the fact that my mom's dog likes it too. She is very picky and turns down wet food that my dog gobbles up. She gets a lot of table scraps so she usually just skips her dog food and waits for the family dinner. But while I was visiting, we caught her sneaking around my dog's bowl, eating what he dropped. My mom tried giving her this for her regular meals, and now she has actually started eating dog food every day. I don't know if it's worth paying shipping on a huge bag of dog food, but I highly recommend Eagle Pack holistic.

I had heard a little about this product from the local pet store, then tried a small bag for our 2 cats of about 3 and 6 years respectively. The female, younger one took to it right away, and the older male, who was unfortunately weaned on the junk cat food with all the corn meal and etc... in it, and would usually refuse a diet change, actually liked it too. The older male is overweight and we were trying to switch him to soft food on the doctor's request, but he totally refused it. He is a posh cat after all. He still consumes too many calories, the fatty, but at least I know he's eating good food. Of course, I know this product seems to cost more than most other feline food on the market, but I just can't see feeding our animals the lousy alternatives that are out there, marketed as being healthy. Why do commercials show cats eating a vegetarian diet which is mostly corn meal? Is that right? I'll stay with this for now, but stay tuned.

I'm updating this review after 9 months of using this cat food for our two cats. I upgraded the stars from 4 to 5 as it really has been a good food for the two of them. Garfield still eats a little too much, but he's just a big cat who doesn't exercise much, let's face it. Our female cat will be 4 years old in a couple months and she's so healthy. She's tiny, but happy and agile. I tried the chicken version of Holistic Select, but Garfield seemd to miss this sardine version so we went back to this one. I've ordered the duck version and will update this once they try it.

The Food:

This food is one of the only ones my allergenic cat can and will eat. I love the limited, high quality ingredients of all of the Addiction foods, but my cat especially loves the rabbit.

The Shipping:

There is only one shipping option for this seller (standard 3-5 business days). I ordered with 5 business days to spare before leaving for vacation, but now see that the estimated arrival date has changed and it's going to get here on the 7th business day (9 days total), so kitty will be without her favorite food for for 3 weeks! I was willing to pay more to get it here faster, but that wasn't an option.

I bought this because the ingredients looked good and I liked the idea of the probiotics, but my goldfish won't go near it so it sat in the tank and turned it a cloudy, brownish color. Once I stopped using it and did a 20% water change, the water cleared up. This may work for some, just didn't work for me.

I wish I knew what was really in this variety. It doesn't say much on the can. I toss this one in for a little variety, but it's not his favorite. He loves the carved versions the best, but he tolerates this one as one of those I use for a little change of pace for my cat. He appreciates it some, I think, but seldom eats the entire can. But I really would like to know what it consists of so I know what he's eating. The gravy sure looks nice and the pieces are a nice size as well not too big so he can get it into his small mouth.

My cat usually doesn't touch wet food. I've tried several brands, and she always ignores it, and demands dry food. I ordered Natural Balance Ultra canned, thinking I would give it a shot since she loves the brand's dry food and she likes chicken flavor. She gobbled it all up quickly! She's been eating this for almost two months now and every time I open the drawer that I store it in, she runs to the kitchen and purrs.

There are about three different companies selling this product here on Amazon and this one was the most inexpensive. I read the reviews on the others and was a little skeptical, but really wanted something to feed my outdoor cats when I am away from home. The product arrived quickly, brand new, and in great condition. I set it up quickly. From the customer reviews, there were many complaints about how difficult it was to program. The difficulty is in the instructions, not the set up. The instructions are confusing, duplicitous, and out of order. I read all the instructions first and figured out that section number 1 should be the very last step, section 6 was a duplicate of a previous section, etc. Once you figure out the instructions themselves, the set up is quite easy. The machine worked excellently and dispensed the proper amount. The reviews had many complaints about the machine dispensing smaller amounts, but for the price it does a fine job. It wasn't built by NASA after all and I didn't expect flawless precision! Bottomline, I am ordering a second one to set up at a different location. If you are away often and worry about an outside pet, this is definitely your solution. I am very pleased. Also, the fact that I am able to leave a voice message for my pets (which plays 3 times by the way!) is great and I know it is soothing to them to hear me calling them even when I am away from home. Great product for the price!

Once upon a time, there was a cartoon posted on our refrigerator that depicted a cat owner standing with feline food can in hand and looking down on the pet, which was staring skeptically at the food dish. The caption read: "The words you're searching for are 'Thank you'."

I don't know what happened to the cartoon. Perhaps it fell to the floor and one of our cats ate it and later coughed it up as part of a hairball.

We have three of the wretched creatures: Amanda, Sissy, and Rags. They're finicky eaters, and, moreover, their individual preferences are out of sync. A fair amount of left over wet, i.e. canned, food goes down the garbage disposal. (Dry food is generally less problematic from the standpoint of acceptance, but that's another story for another time. If Amanda fills an empty stomach on dry, she often throws it up. Last week, it was on the window sill and into the groove into which the open, vertically sliding window would come to rest when closed.)

To date, our best luck and that's an overstatement has been with the canned brand that provides the cats with an opportunity for fancy feasting. But, even then, that's only with some of the varieties. For instance, they generally don't like "flaked" or "minced", or "sliced." What may work on a good day is the "classic", "grilled", or "chunky." It's a crapshoot.

Recently, we purchased a couple of cans of MAX CAT at a pet specialty store. Surprisingly, all three of the beggars chowed it down to the glaze on the dish.

Since then, we've tried various flavor permutations of the adult recipes: lamb, turkey, chicken, liver, seafood, venison, duck, and salmon. Even one kitten recipe that fell into the basket by mistake (Chicken & Oceanfish Formula). All of them have been consumed with enthusiasm. We stand amazed; it's a new paradigm for the moment.

Looking at the labeling on three random flavors (Salmon, Savory Duck, Turkey & Chicken Liver), the ingredients common to all (and presumably the other varieties) are: chicken, potato starch, wheat gluten, pork plasma, natural flavors, salt, guar gum, sodium phosphate, calcium carbonate, potassium chloride, DL-methionine, taurine xanthine gum, ferrous sulfate, vitamin E supplement, choline chloride, zinc oxide, thiamine mononitrate (vitamin B1), copper proteinate, manganous sulfate, niacin, d-calcium pantothenate, vitamin A supplement, vitamin D3 supplement, pyridoxine hydrochloride, riboflavin supplement, potassium iodide, vitamin B12 supplement, sodium selenite, folic acid, and biotin. I should try one on a cracker. (Of course, each individual flavor also contains the ingredient that defines it, like duck in the "savory duck.")

The label further states that the food is "formulated to meet the nutritional levels established by the AAFCO Cat Food Nutrient Profiles ..."

In case you didn't know, the AAFCO is the Association of American Feed Control Officials. According to its website:

"Although AAFCO has no regulatory authority, the Association provides a forum for the membership and industry representation to achieve three main goals:

* Ensure consumer protection

* Safeguarding the health of animals and humans

* Providing a level playing field of orderly commerce for the animal feed industry.

These goals are achieved by developing and implementing uniform and equitable laws, regulations, standards, definitions and enforcement policies for regulating the manufacture, distribution and sale of animal feeds resulting in safe, effective and useful feeds by promoting uniformity amongst member agencies."

In other words, the Pet Food Police.

An MoU (Memorandum of Understanding) exists between the AAFCO and the Food and Drug Administration. I guess a warm and fuzzy exchange of cards at Christmas just isn't enough.

Why, the AAFCO even has an annual meeting. I'll bet that's a debauch.

MAX CAT is manufactured by Nutro Products, Inc. of Franklin, TN. I wonder if they have a squirrel flavor for consumption by kitties living in the back woods.

We aren't so naive as to believe that one or more of the unholy trio won't ultimately max out on MAX CAT. Why, it could happen as soon as this evening. But, in the meantime and until we're forced back to square one, gratitude is due Nutro and MAX CAT foods.

I actually really like these bowls. They look great and they are the perfect size for our kitties. They are very small but they easily fit a whole can of wet food each or a good scoop of dry. They've held up well so far with no chips and they are easy to clean. Not to mention they look very nice!
